There’s been some speculation and little news on the ‘Eliminate’ Version 1.1 update [ELIMINATE REVIEW]. Well, Ngmoco has released more details and info on the 1.1 update for Eliminate. The new 1.1 update does include 1 new map named ‘Cube’, and new skins, which is confirmed. There are also ‘Prototype’ weapons and armor, which is also confirmed, but not a whole lot of details and info has been released on how this will work and what it will be. The new map ‘Cube’ is said to be like “Bedlam meets Onrail”, which should be interesting. For those of you Berserker Shield complainers, ‘Cube’ will have the Berserker Shield, but in a not so user-friendly area according to Ngmoco.

The new 1.1 update doesn’t have any new weapons or armor, which is also confirmed. The new 1.1 update does have ‘Prototype’ armor and weapons which is basically a trail of the armor or weapon you choose. Now, these ‘Prototype’ armor and weapons will cost credits, but won’t last forever, unlike if you purchase the armor for the full price.

Like I said earlier, there will be new skins in the 1.1 update. The new skins that will be in the update do include stat boost by a percentage, which is also confirmed.

The prototypes are described by Ngmoco below, so that you may get a better idea:

These prototypes are specially modified weapons and armors that come pre-upgraded so current employees can take them for a test drive before deciding to purchase the real deal. But since they are experimental, these prototypes have limited durability and will only last for a few arena tests.

The new skins are described by Ngmoco below, so that you may get a better idea:

Skin mods will give you even more reason to buy skins (if for some reason, looking incredibly slick wasn’t reason enough). They will be uniquely stylized so your armor will look different, and also give a *percentage* boost to a single stat. For example, the jump mod skin will look particularly bouncy, and boost your jump skill by X percentage regardless of your armor’s upgrade level.
